2.15pm Not a bowling effort to be proud of. Four wides. Five no-balls - three of them in the last over from Jason Holder. It is moist and wet - not really helpful conditions for the bowlers - but Holder completely lost control towards the end. West Indies were lax for large parts even otherwise. In conditions that required them to bowl full and draw the batsman forward, they dragged their lengths back in the early exchanges that allowed the opening partnership between Ajinkya Rahane and Shikhar Dhawan to flourish. Dhawan played some delightful straight drives and Rahane stroked his way to this third ODI century while Virat Kohli muscled his way to 87. India have amassed 310 for 5 and it is a seriously daunting task that is in front of West Indies. Karthik will be with you for the chase shortly.
